Ratatat

Any fans?? Touring the UK in February!



  • i do like them a lot

    been listening to the first album a lot recently.

    saw them at the Metro once. quite good live, but nothing incredible.

    • Have you heard

      the new stuff? They have a track or two from the new album on their myspace.com/ratatatmusic site, dont think the album is out here yet though.

      • i heard that cat tune

        not bad. pretty much more of the same. theyve got a great sound.

        ive made a resolution to listen to them next time i sex someone up.

  • Ooooh ace!

    thanks for that...haven't checked their myspace for a little while. sweet.

  • Good work

    I've just discovered them. Well, one song. But I fuckin' loves it. I will be at...White Heat, apparently. Hmm.

    • oooh at white heat?

      thatll be a good place to see them i think.

      • I've never been

        Not sure I want to go. I'm sure I'll hate it.

        • well, you are reallly old and fat and ugly...

          ive never seen a band at white heat, but when i go, theres normally a good dancefloor. so seeing backing tracky 80s baroque electro there will be good, as opposed to seeing them at the metro or whatever other dive.

          • It's quite a good place to watch bands.

            I think ratatat are okay, I just find them a bit too samey a lot of the time... and I didn't like the new one much either.

            </grumble>

  • I listened to them for the first time last night.

    I think I enjoyed it. But I can't remember what they sound like. I may have been asleep.

  • Classics

    "17 Years" is one of the most amazing songs ever. We're supporting them in Manchester, I'm going to try and bum rush the stage when they play it.

    • Seventeen Years

      is the track I've heard. That has grabbed me by the musical balls. it's fucking brilliant.

      • it saddens me

        cos thats the track ive had for aaaaages, and its te best thing on the album

        its all milky tho.

        • Oh

          I've just bought the album on the strength of that song. I shoujld have asked first. Still. I bet it'll rule. IT WILL RULE.

          • I don't know about their earlier stuff.

            But the last album was awful. Cheesy soft rock instrumentals.

            • i really liked it!

              but also liked the hold steady album.

              maybe im getting to into the cheesy soft rock.

  • I've only heard 17 years

    and I've listened to it a few times now and it does nothing for me.

    • What the...?

      You must be mad. It Baroques! Just close your eyes and imagine shredding out those sick solos.
